A Thanksgiving Story


Directions: Read the following story. Choose five of the sentences and change them to passive sentences.

Last Thanksgiving, my family celebrated the holiday together. My grandparents, aunts and uncles, and cousins came to our house. My mother and grandmothers prepared the food. Everyone enjoyed the turkey, stuffing, sweet potatoes, cranberry sauce, and mashed potatoes. For dessert, the family ate pumpkin pecan pie and cherry pie. After dinner, we watched the Detroit Lions football game. Then, the kids played a game of football in the backyard. We told stories about past holidays. I think that everyone had a wonderful holiday. I can't wait for next year!
